Hi forum

I want to upgrade my pc with the new i9 14900K. What RAM should I buy? 6000 cl30 or 7200 cl34?

I want it to be plug and play with XMP (no RAM manual overclocking). I am thinking about buying the Asus Maximus Z790 Hero high-end motherboard.

I use my PC mostly for gaming and video rendering.

Thanks in advance

If you want to minimize the risk of XMP not working get the 6000 kit. Since it's cl30 it probably has hynix chips anyway, which means that if you ever want to overclock in the future you'll still be able to reach high frequencies.
